We make sense of the world and the things that happen to us by constructing narratives to explain and interpret events both to ourselves and to other people" (Sikes & Gale, 2006 in Facebook Narratives).]]> 2017-04-05 21:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165008200 katherine_a_barrack https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165237342 - I really like the way Davies situated tagging...how can we "encourage co-authorship across time and space" as teachers? 
- How do we honor alternative literacies while still reserving time for students to engage with the print literacies that are (for better or for worse) privileged in our society? When engaging in a text set, will students view the multimodal hook as an attempt by teachers to pander to their popular culture identities as Alvermann suggested as a possibility? ]]> 2017-04-06 18:32:26 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165237342 katherine_a_barrack https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165250130 2017-04-06 19:21:24 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165250130 katherine_a_barrack https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165250233 is making meaning, writing narratives, practicing communication skills, and positioning myself and others within a social space by my writing.]]> 2017-04-06 19:21:52 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165250233 katherine_a_barrack https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165257119 This looks like a really cool resource! It might be worth using the money the school/PTO provides for supplies to get one of the monthly plans. Think of how dynamic your classroom library could be!]]> 2017-04-06 19:55:41 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165257119 katherine_a_barrack https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165257720 This site unfortunately no longer displays their online collection of zines that tackle current issues of political protest and social justice; however, the lesson plans are still available and could be modified. This seems like a great way for students to get involved with comprehension strategies like questioning the author- it may be easier to question someone who has created a tiny pamphlet than a big textbook company. This could foster their questioning habits of mind!]]> 2017-04-06 19:59:12 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165257720 katherine_a_barrack https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165258223 This looks like it has some great resources! The organization also puts on a festival that teachers and students can submits zines to- what an authentic audience!]]> 2017-04-06 20:02:11 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165258223 katherine_a_barrack https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165270167 "As much as it is a social practice, literacy must also be conceived as personal, a practice in which the individual engages to negotiate and articulate the human aspects of self. In these changing times, bodies mobilize selves through embodied texts. Such texts reveal complex personal perceptions and trajectories and multiple and oftentimes tenuous realities and sometimes harmful fictions. Bodies can also render personal identities visible" (Kirkland, 2009, p. 391).]]> 2017-04-06 21:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165270167 spm5222 https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165419919 The Kirkland (2009) article, Davies article, and the Zines article all touched upon ways that we make literacy personal. We can create zines, create a Facebook narrative, or put symbolic tattoos on ourself to build self-identity.]]> 2017-04-07 15:54:00 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165419919 spm5222 https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165422233 Zines go back to the broadsides distributed during the revolutionary war. https://www.loc.gov/collections/broadsides-and-other-printed-ephemera/]]> 2017-04-07 16:02:59 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165422233 spm5222 https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165424371 I liked the idea that tattoos can be seen as "stories, struggles, and symbols" (Kirkland, 2009). ]]> 2017-04-07 16:12:18 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165424371 spm5222 https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165425196 Facebook might not always be allowed in schools, so teachers can try Schoology or Edmodo instead to allow for collaborative creation of narratives.]]> 2017-04-07 16:15:23 UTC https://padlet.com/katherine_a_barrack/alternativelit/wish/165425196
